Residential House Fire Cleanup in Oxford GA.
Nov 25, 2021

Home fires can be devastating and overwhelming, but the important thing to remember is that whatever the damage is, it can always be repaired or rebuilt. Extensive home fire cleanup and repair does not only address the cosmetics of your home but also takes into account any structural damage that may have occurred. The following post highlights a fire cleanup project we completed in Oxford, Georgia. This was a complete and total demolition and rebuild due to extensive fire and smoke damage.

Project Type:

When our clients in Oxford, GA experienced a house fire this past October, they called us right away. We arrived at their property as soon as possible after receiving the call


After the fire was completely put out, we carried out a thorough inspection of the entire home. This is when we evaluated the extent of the fire and determined exactly how much damage had been done to the home. From this inspection, we noted extensive fire damage to the kitchen and surrounding areas. This included the ceiling, furniture, appliances, and floor. In addition to the fire and smoke damage, the rest of the home had significant water damage as a result of the firefighting efforts to contain the fire. 

Project Challenges:

Due to the extent of the fire and water damage to the property, it was concluded that the home would need to be completely demolished and reconstructed. This was the best way to ensure complete safety and restoration of the property. This included building a new structure and installing all-new flooring, ceilings, and roofing. The home was completely rewired and reconnected electrically. In addition to the electric work, the home’s plumbing and water systems were also redone. 


The structure of the home was not the only thing restored. The more cosmetic aspects of the home were also prioritized in order to restore our clients home to the cozy and comfortable space it has been before. This is why we paid special attention to details of the home such as the lighting, cabinets, paint choices, etc.

Project Results:

Our main goal in any fire damage restoration project is to ultimately restore your home to its former glory. With that in mind, this project was a resounding success.


The home was successfully rebuilt and restored so that our clients could enjoy it again. The kitchen, which was the most severely damaged in the fire, was completely redone with no trace of any fire or smoke damage. The rest of the home now dons new flooring, walls, ceilings, and furnishings. This left the entire home free of all fire, smoke, or water damage.

Is fire damage expensive to repair?

The total costs of repairing fire or smoke damage in your home can widely vary from home to home. This is dependent on how much of the property has been damaged due to the extent of the fire as well as the water damage from firefighting. This is also dependent on the size of the property which is why a professional inspection is often needed in order to give a more accurate estimation of these costs.
